SINGAPORE, November 16, 2009 - Global cruise brand Royal Caribbean International’s Legend of the Seas is back in Singapore again at noon today since the end of her last Asian season six months ago, amid warm welcome from the local office staff, tourism and port officers, heightened by lively performances by lion and dragon dance troops. The cruise ship is set to kick start her year-round deployment in Asia tomorrow, November 17. Her extended stay in the region represents a significant milestone in the history of Royal Caribbean in Asia, which marks its deepened commitment to this market with more sailings as well as new homeports, itineraries and destinations for its guests to experience.
Greater Convenience and More Choices for Cruisers
Fans of Legend of the Seas can look forward to a wide variety of attractive new itineraries and destinations which gives a more comprehensive coverage of the Asian region. There are about 70 sailings over the year-long period to choose from, featuring over 20 distinct itineraries including 15 new ones, and 10 new ports-of-call such as Halong Bay, Hualien, Miyazaki, Kagoshima, Seoul (Incheon) and Vladivostok.
The year-round deployment will begin with a series of Southeast Asian cruises of three, four and five nights out of Singapore to the popular destinations of Penang, Kuala Lumpur (Port Klang), Langkawi and Phuket. From next February on, the ship will homeport in Hong Kong, Shanghai, and for the first time, Tianjin and Yokohama, from where she will be offering North Asian cruises.
Among the highlights of this deployment include four distinct itineraries from Hong Kong to popular historical and scenic destinations such as Sanya, Hue/Danang, Taipei and Okinawa. Guests can also experience the best of Japan and Korea on six different itineraries out of Shanghai and two from Yokohama to exciting stops such as Hakodate, Kobe, Jeju Island and Busan. With more homeports, more Asian cruisers can enjoy greater convenience to set sail from their own doorstep to experience the best that the region has to offer with Legend of the Seas.
Guests sailing on the special Christmas, New Year’s Eve and Chinese New Year festive cruises will be in for a unique and memorable holiday on the high seas, with all kinds of traditional meals, entertainment and activities lined up.
A Destination in Itself
Onboard the feature-packed Legend of the Seas, vacationers can look forward to an ocean of entertainment and relaxation choices, such as the brand’s signature 9m rock-climbing wall offering an incredible view of the sea, and a miniature golf course which promises endless fun for the whole family.
In addition, one can savor the wide variety of mouth-watering international cuisine whilst enjoying the sea view from the two-tier glass-walled Romeo and Juliet Dining Room, watch dazzling Broadway-style musicals, or relax in the Solarium’s indoor/outdoor pool with retractable glass roof. As for the younger guests, they will be entertained by the Adventure Ocean activities for multiple age groups. Most of all, the cruise comes in a winning package of value, with virtually everything included in the price.
